Acchi

| ||||||||||||
Acchi is a large enemy that debuted in Kirby: Squeak Squad. It yields the Fire ability when swallowed, but requires a Super Inhale to do so.
Acchi is a smooth amphibian-like enemy with red skin and a white underbelly, with a small tail and flaming backside, referencing an ancient myth claiming that salamanders are born from fire. It does not move from its position, instead opting to spit out bursts of flame in whichever direction Kirby is. These flame bursts will linger on the ground for a short time after being fired. In many cases, Acchi can simply be avoided easily, since it is seldom in Kirby's way, and cannot pursue him. Being a large enemy, Acchi has a good deal of health. Attacking it can cause it to bounce off to a different position, where it will then resume its normal spitting.
Game appearancesEdit
Kirby: Squeak SquadEdit
Acchi appears as an enemy only in Kirby: Squeak Squad. It is a relatively rare enemy, and often makes only one or two appearances in the stages it can be found in. Despite this rarity, Acchi has no particularly special role to fill.
When possessed by Ghost Kirby, Acchi cannot walk, but can be made to jump short distances left or right. It can also be made to spit out its fiery projectile either straight forward or at an upward arc, though both take some time to charge up.
